Stuart Skinner News: Gets nod Wednesday

Skinner is expected to get the home start for Wednesday's preseason game against Seattle.

Samuel Jonsson will serve as Skinner's understudy, and the duo might end up splitting the workload given that this is an early preseason game. Skinner is expected to start the campaign as Edmonton's clear No. 1 goaltender and will likely get more than 50 regular-season appearances as long as he stays healthy.
